I'd love to see 48-bit support in Virtual Dub.

I work with 16-bit (per channel) image sequences that I'd like to process trough VirtualDub deflickering filter, before working with them in After Effects. The limitation of 8-bits per channel pretty much makes it impossible for anyone from film industry to work in VirtualDub.

There was an request for this dated back to 2002, but I thought it would be time to lift the issue back to the table.

Plus, as long as we are talking image sequences, alpha channel wouldn't hurt.

I'm pretty sure this is in the TODO list, so it might be available someday. You can do 16-bit/32-float processing using the GPU shader but the input and output will be 8-bit/ch - but very high quality. : )

I once requested OpenEXR I/O, and with the plugin system it's quite doable. I'd code it myself, if I could code anything at all. Heh.
